Low kms and low fuel usage. 7L/100km out of every tank!!

Do you want a cheap daily car which is good on fuel and just works? Then this is the car for you. I have owned this Corolla for 2 years now and it has been a brilliant every-day car.

It has low kms for it's age at 190xxx. The engine is the renowned 100kW 4A-GE which is in optimal condition. The gearbox is as far as I can tell absolutely perfect. It has never given me any grief whatsoever. It has been serviced every 15,000km whilst I've owned it and it has registration until August.

In terms of extras the car has:

- Tinted windows

- Some sort of aftermarket suspension

- Pioneer head unit which plays MP3s.

- Jaycar Response-branded Kevlar front splits (speakers).

- Aftermarket (Unknown brand) mesh-style rims.

- A new exhaust system (only a little louder than stock)

While I've had it I've:

- Replaced the two front wheel bearings with Koyo (the Japanese OE supplier for this car; no cheap shit) replacements.

- Repaired the rear calipers.

- Installed a brand new O2 sensor as the original was on it's way out. (Helped with fuel economy)

- Also installed new air intake temperature and coolant temperature sensors.

Also in the last few months I've also:

- Installed a new battery.

- Replaced the two front tyres with good middle of the range performance tyres.

- Done a full wheel alignment.

The car drives absolutely brilliantly considering it's age. I'm sure the first person who comes and drives it will take it as it still surprises me just how well it's built compared to other cars of its vintage. Would make a great first car.

Oh and did I mention 7L/100km of city driving? On E10 which is cheaper than Unleaded?

Come test drive it and I'm sure you'll agree. Looking for $3100ono. No swaps as I already have another car.

Located in Wheelers Hill, SE Melbourne. Call me on 0423800325.

    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
